Dude what's wrong asking here ??
Can't rooting be device specific ?
And I have started this post in general section only after searching everywhere on xda !!
Rooting for unlocked bootloaders is available but not for locked bootloaders !

Okay ! Then you suggest me a direct method to root which you can see on xda with your wide open eyes
And mpiekp's method is not direct! I am looking for a direct method.

Right now it's the only way for locked bl.......
Really restore a backup and flash a kernel is hardly a taxing method, if that's too much effort why not just wait.........

Found this tool in the Xperia mini forums!
looks really handy and can do a lot of things like Unlock bootloader, Root, CWM and modify kernel even for .62
and supports Xperia neo V (MT11i) too
THIS TOOL USES OFFICIAL METHOD TO UNLOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER
Check this thread : HERE
A small note, this is uses the official unlock so is no good if allowed status is no.
Or if you don't want Sony to know

Hi,
i am a newbie here. with help of the forum, i was able to root my xperia neo V running stock ICS. now that i want to try custom ROM - Polish Blood...
the topic for the same only gives an overview...
can somebody please guide me about going further with this...
i have downloaded the required files from the links on the topic
my neo V is rooted with a locked boot loader and have installed a few apps recommended (Titanium Backup, ROM Toolbox & ROM Manager)
do i need to install a kernel (if yes, which) or can i just install the ROM?
any help is appreciated
First you gotta unlock your bootloader to go further.

what would you suggest, should i go with the official Sony method or is there some other way around. i don't want to lose the warranty, just in case something goes wrong. since, you are using a neo V and even the ROM... what are the major positives & negatives?
thanks
Sorry,is not the right post, but how is the performance of the phone after the ICS update? Please send your answer at [email protected]. Thanks in advance!

hi,
after updating to ICS (the first release) it was good only after i got root,
thanks to the developers here at xda
but i would still like to go with the Polish Blood ROM to enjoy the free memory and speedier, responsive games & applications (hope so)
hi,
my phone doesn't boot beyond the SONY logo now
please help......
omg
all that you can do now is to reflash your phone with a generic firmware using flashtool. Such threads are available in xda forum. look for it follow it. hope it works.

I remember how I thought my phone was bricked
You can do it easily now. Just take someone's help for test point (if you choose) or official is easy.

Hehe
Yea a year after even I would feel childish in asking such questions
Btw yea things have become much more easy and reliable...
And I'm considering official as I am not finding any guy who can do the unofficial unlock for me...
Wish I could have met you or communicated with you through some other medium like chats.... So that I don't brick by doin unlock by unofficial method... I know it sounds noobish but can't really help it.... As this being my 1st droid... Don't wanna ruin it and then spend money....

Pff again a thread like this:/
A simple way is, flash 4.0.3 firmware so you are back on Android 4.0.3 root it and do the OTA (over the air)
Then you have 4.0.4 rooted
Done.

Since I see you are able to write and click few buttons to post, use that knowledge to click on search and to search a bit in Neo section. There are numerous threads regarding GB root.

First, you can't damage your device by trying to root.
Second, if you find something, and you're not sure, post the link here and someone will say if it's ok or not.
Hi, my xperia s is coming in tomorrow and im really excited. I know I should check forum first but im on my mobile and it is hard to do it. But is there a root method for xperia s without unlocking bootloader? Like similar to zergling rush for arc ?
Thank you

U have to unlock the bootloader to use flash, then you can relock it again after the firmware+stock ROM installation.. XDA has a thread based on it. Be sure to check it out =)~

If you rooted your .431, you don't need downgrade to gb, run step III from your rooted 431 and follow instruction ( in step 4 flash 587 ftf instead 431, you can fimd ,587 ftf for your phone in this forum) and ( recommend to use flashtool to flash your 587 rom ft f)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1898236
Here you should check this thread up. Though I was hoping someone can explain the flashing kernel part to me.
I've tried to update to .587 OTA and got "could not install" error after reboot =/
